Elias P. Snyder (1859-1891), Delaware County, Indiana

Working on filling in some gaps in my database by utilizing the "Indiana Marriages, 1811-1959" database at Familysearch.org to see what updates and corrections I could find.Elias P. Snyder (1859-1891) was the son of Edwin Clark Anthony and Amanda (Groenendyke) Snyder. His marriage on October 6, 1877 in Delaware County, Indiana was found in the database. I have the surname as Snyder in my database, but the record clearly spells the alternative Snider.

Elias was my maternal first cousin four times removed. Our common ancestors were Elias Groenendyke and Nancy Jenkins. Elias and Nancy had at least 3 children. He died January 24, 1891 in Delaware County, Indiana.
